Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

I use the brand-new iso released today to boot Ubuntu 10.10. By default
no crash occurs. I see this bug only if Kernel parameter "nomodeset" is
added. Unfortunately kernel mode setting still makes kernel freezes on
most ATI systems I know including mine. Dual screen, googleearth, sleep-
resume only work reliable if nomodeset is added. This bug report is NOT
about problems with kernel mode setting!

Steps to reproduce:
1. boot with Kernel parameter "nomodeset"
2. add "universe" to package repositories and reload package lists
3. double-click a video (see below for a crashing example video)
4. let the assistant install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg and gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
5. close totem, then double-click the video again
6. press F for fullscreen
7. press ctrl+R to zoom in
=> X-Server crashes

My laptop graphics adapter:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M24 1P [Radeon Mobility X600]

A video that crashes is downloadable here: http://kai3.tv/cc2/CC-
Zwei-47-NRWTV.mp4

In Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 this crash did never occur!
